This Lighthouse is located north of Orlando. Though considered by many to be a faux lighthouse, it is registered as an inland aid to navigation, the only one in Florida. The lighthouse was built in 1988 at a cost of $3,000 raised by local civic groups. It is 35 feet tall with a flashing red light, and a day mark of alternating red and white strips with a white hexagonal lantern.
Faux, or fake, lighthouses are not and have not been working lighthouses. They are often miniatures of actual lighthouses. Many are attached to restaurants with nautical themes, are used as Bed & Breakfasts or serve as a pieces of art as would a sculpture.
